Definitions
- This invention relates to a polymeric composition in pellet form comprising a tacky hot melt composition which can be used either for hot melt pressure sensitive applications or for molded articles.
- a tacky hot melt composition which can be used either for hot melt pressure sensitive applications or for molded articles.
- These compositions suitable are defined by having a storage modulus, G', at 25° C., of less than about 5 ⁇ 10 6 dynes/cm 2 , and each pellet has a substantially tack-free surface prior to melting, and pressure sensitive characteristics after resolidification.
- the polymeric compositions suitable for use in injection molding preferably comprise a high molecular weight block copolymer and have a tack-free surface both prior to melting the pellets, and after melting and resolidification.
- Tacky hot melt compositions have been used widely in the adhesive industry for a wide range of applications such as for pressure sensitive adhesives due to their ability to adhere to a wide variety of substrates.
- a primary property of a hot melt pressure sensitive composition is that it remain tacky at room temperature so that it may be adhered to substrates when it has completely cooled from its molten state. Examples of applications which require this property are tape and label applications. Paper, polyethylene, polypropylene or other such substrates may be coated with the tacky hot melt composition, covered with release liner, and then shipped this way for later applications such as for labels used on various containers, books, magazines, or envelopes just to name a few.
- tacky hot melt compositions in other applications has been precluded by the fact that they remain tacky. Yet it may be desirable to use these soft and very flexible compositions for other applications.
- One such application is the formation of articles by injection molding. Some articles formed by injection molding include shoe soles, drum pads, therapeutic hand exercising grips, shock absorbers, acoustical insulators, chair pads and imitation skin for use in the entertainment industry but this list is not exhaustive.
- hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives also makes them difficult to handle. They may adhere to skin, clothing, application equipment, floors, or other places that are undesirable. Many packaging methods have been devised to avoid the problems encountered in the handling of these hot melt pressure sensitive compositions.
- Hot melt adhesives are supplied as pellets, pillows as disclosed by German Pat. 22 48 046, slats or chicklets, blocks, and cakes.
- a further problem encountered with hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives is that the tackiness may result in blocking individual pieces together resulting in a large mass in the shipping containers. This makes it difficult to get the adhesive into many different types of hot melt premelter tanks used in the industry.
- U.S. Pat. No. 3,723,035 discloses a machine performing an improved method of packaging a hot melt adhesive. This produces an end product known as pillows to one of skill in the art. These pillows can be coextruded with a non-tacky polymer such as polyethylene for producing pressure sensitive adhesives that are tacky at room temperature. This coextrusion coating prevents the pillows from blocking together in a solid mass at room temperature. Using this method, once the coextruded pillows are melted for use on an application line, the hot melt composition again becomes tacky when it returns to room temperature.
- a non-tacky polymer such as polyethylene
- French Pat. No. 2,544,654 published Oct. 26, 1984 discloses forming a tackless hot melt by adding the molten hot melt to a mold which contains a preformed support layer having a transfer film which is compatible with the hot melt.
- U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,748,796 issued Jun. 7, 1988 and 4,755,245 issued Jul. 5, 1988 disclose forming a protective coating for an adhesive material by electrostatically coating a mold or cavity with a powder screen and then pouring hot melt into the mold.
- French Pat. No. 2,601,616 published Oct. 22, 1988 discloses forming blocks of hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive by casting the adhesive into molds precoated by spraying with a film of non self-sticking hot melt material.
- German Pat. Nos. DE 31 38 222, DE 32 34 065, and DE 36 25 358 teach coating or wrapping a formed hot melt block with various types of film.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,257,491 to Rouyer et al. teaches a method of packaging a hot melt adhesive composition wherein the adhesive composition is sufficiently solidified or when flowable.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,401,455 to Hatfield et al. issued Mar. 28, 1995 teaches a method for packaging hot melt adhesive compositions comprising the use of a mold being in contact with a refrigerant gas or liquid heat sink.
- Hatfield teaches that when a hot melt adhesive is poured into a cavity lined with film in its molten state, the adhesive is fused to some extent with the film. According to Hatfield, this in turn allows some mixing and compatibilizing of the film, improving the opportunity for more complete mixing.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,057,571 to Malcolm et al. discloses at column 8 line 59 to column 9 line 14 a method for pelletizing a preblend of a radial block copolymer and a tackifying resin. This preblend is then used to make hot melt adhesives for disposable article construction. The preblend is manufactured on an extruder. The pelletized preblend was then used to make an adhesive using conventional hot melt mixers. This is a two step process of making hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives, and it was never intended to teach making a finished product in a free-flowing pellet form.
- the current inventors have found a polymeric composition in a free-flowing pellet form that can be either a hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive or a polymeric composition that has a surface that remains tack-free after melting and resolidification.
- the present invention discloses a polymeric composition in pellet form, comprising:
- a tacky hot melt composition comprising:
- thermoplastic polymer from about 5% to about 90% by weight of a thermoplastic polymer
- composition from about 0.1% to about 3% by weight of a pelletizing aid, wherein the composition comprises some minimum amount of tackifier or plasticizer or both.
- the tacky hot melt composition is a pressure sensitive adhesive having a storage modulus, G', at 25° C., of less than about 5 ⁇ 10 6 dynes/cm 2 , as measured using a Rheometrics Scientific Dynamic Mechanical Spectrometer Model #RDS7700.
- the pelletizing aid is used to provide hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives in pellet form wherein the pellet has a tack-free surface. Once the pellets are melted and resolidified, these compositions once again return to their original tacky state. These pellets are free-flowing and the resultant pelletized composition can be used in various tape and label applications, in non-woven applications where pressure sensitive adhesives are used such as for positioning of feminine napkins, diaper fastening systems, and disposable article construction, in the automotive industry where hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives are used for assembly applications, and for medical applications.
- the present invention further discloses a polymeric composition in pellet form, comprising:
- a tacky hot melt composition comprising:
- the resultant polymeric compositions have a tack-free surface both prior to melting the pellets, and after melting and resolidification.
- the resultant tacky hot melt compositions are characterized by a specific gravity of greater than about 0.8, Mettler Softening Points of greater than about 90° C. and Bloom Gelometer readings of greater than about 20 grams.
- the pellets thus formed are soft, non-blocking, substantially without surface tack and exhibit an elastic rebound, as characterized by G' (elastic or storage modulus) measurements. These compositions are suitable for use in molding, especially injection molding. Any molded products produced therefrom also retain the substantially tack-free surface. While the bulk composition determines the properties of the pellets, the pelletizing aid determine the surface properties of the pellets, and has no effect on the bulk properties.
- composition suitable for such processes comprises:
- a tacky hot melt composition comprising:
- the pelletizing aid substantially surrounds the tacky composition such that the molded articles are soft, non-blocking and have a substantially tack-free surface.
- other compatible block copolymers such as radial blocks and diblocks and other triblocks can be added.
- the tacky hot melt composition comprises from about 97 to about 99.9 percent by weight of the article, more preferably from about 99 to about 99.9 percent by weight.
- any molded articles produced therefrom also retain the substantially tack-free surface and rebound properties.
- Such articles can include drum pads useful as acoustical pads for vibration damping, disc players, ear phones, percussion surfaces on electronic drum kits and so on; soles, shoes insoles, in-line skate soles and so on; pads for use in athletic gear such as mouth pads, protective guards, encapsulants for other solid protective pads and so on; bicycle seats, gloves, bicycle shorts and so on; medical equipment such as pads for wheel chairs, donut-shaped pads for seats and so on; furniture pads such as mattress pads, chair pads and so on; special effects articles such as body parts, Santa Claus' bellies, synthetic skin, and others that are useful in movies; and bandages, especially for burn wounds. While the rest of the composition determines the overall bulk properties of the pellets and articles molded therefrom, the pelletizing aid determines the surface properties of not only the pellets, but the articles made from such pellets.
- the present invention also discloses an under-water pelletizing process for making the tacky hot melt compositions in pellet form, utilizing a pelletizing aid to produce pellets that have a substantially tack-free surface making them non-blocking, and are soft.
- the process varies slightly for each product, dependent mainly on the plasticizer loading, and comprises the steps of:
- the pellets can be made into any convenient size.
- the pellets are substantially spherical, with sizes ranging from about 1/8 to about 3/8 inch (about 3 mm to about 10 mm) in diameter for easy handling.
- the pellets can also be ellipsoidal and cylindrical. The preferred dimensions for these shapes can range from about 3 mm to about 10 mm to about 10 mm by 20 mm.
- the pelletized polymeric compositions of the present invention can exhibit a spectrum of properties, ranging from compositions having hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive properties to compositions suitable for molding non-tacky articles.
- These polymeric compositions have a storage modulus, G', at 25° C. of less than about 5 ⁇ 10 6 dynes/cm 2 , and preferably have a storage modulus, G', at about 25° C., from about 1 ⁇ 10 4 to about 5 ⁇ 10 6 dynes/cm 2 while those useful for molding applications can have a storage modulus of greater than about 5 ⁇ 10 6 dynes/cm 2 .
- the storage modulus, G' is measured using a Rheometrics Scientific Dynamic Mechanical Spectrometer Model #RDS7700.
- thermoplastic polymers useful for the present invention can include A-B-A triblock copolymers, A-B diblock copolymers, A-B-A-B-A-B multiblock copolymers, radial block copolymers and grafted versions thereof; homopolymers, copolymers and terpolymers of ethylene; and homopolymers, copolymers and terpolymers of propylene; and mixtures thereof.

- the plasticizers useful in the present invention may include mineral based oils and petroleum based oils, liquid resins, liquid elastomers, polybutene, polyisobutylene, functionalized oils such as glycerol trihydroxyoleate and other fatty oils and mixtures thereof.
- a plasticizer is broadly defined as a typically organic composition that can be added to the thermoplastics, rubbers and other resins to improve extrudability, flexibility, workability and stretchability in the finished adhesive. Any material which flows at ambient temperatures and is compatible with the block copolymer may be useful.
- oils which are primarily hydrocarbon oils that are low in aromatic content and are paraffinic or naphthenic in character.
- the oils are preferably low in volatility, transparent and have as little color and odor as possible.
- This invention also contemplates the use of olefin oligomers, low molecular weight polymers, vegetable oils and their derivatives and similar plasticizing oils.
- plasticizers examples include CalsolTM 5120, a naphthenic petroleum based oil available from Calumet Lubricants Co. in Indianapolis, Ind.; KaydolTM White Mineral Oil, a paraffinic mineral oil available from Witco Corp. in New York, N.Y.; ParapolTM 1300, a liquid butene homopolymer available from Exxon Chemical Co. in Houston, Tex.; IndopolTM H-300, a liquid butene homopolymer, available from Amoco Corp.
- a pelletizing aid is used to change the surface characteristics of the pellets. It would be generally undesirable for molded articles manufactured by such methods as injection molding, to remain tacky. Surprisingly, a small amount of pelletizing aid can make the surface of the pellets substantially non-tacky.
- the pelletizing aids do not change the end use properties of the tacky composition, as in the formulas used as hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives, or they do change the physical properties of the tacky composition, as in the case of the formulas used for the molding applications.
- the pelletizing aid is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene waxes, modified polyethylene waxes, polyamide waxes and stearamide waxes. Many other waxes or pelletizing aids not on this list could also be useful provided the surface of the resultant pellet is tack-free.
- Preferred waxes are Acrawax CTM stearamide wax available from Lonza, Inc.
- these pelletizing aids are polyethylene waxes and come in powder form.
- the pelletizing aid is present from about 0.1 percent to about 3 percent by weight and preferably from about 0.1 percent to about 1 percent by weight. This amount is substantially less or comparable to the packaging film of prior art packaging methods. It is believed that the temperature of use of the tacky hot melt composition controls whether the surface of tacky hot melt composition returns to the substantially tack-free state after melting the pellets, and subsequent resolidification.
- a stabilizer or antioxidant can also be used in the polymeric compositions. These compounds are added to protect the adhesive from degradation caused by reaction with oxygen induced by such things as heat, light or residual catalyst from the raw materials such as the tackifying resin.
- Such antioxidants are commercially available from Ciba-Geigy in Hawthorne, N.Y. and include IrganoxTM 565, IrganoxTM 1010 and IrganoxTM 1076, all hindered phenolic antioxidants. These are primary antioxidants which act as free radical scavengers and may be used alone or in combination with other antioxidants such as phosphite antioxidants like IrgafosTM 168 available from Ciba-Geigy.
- Phosphite antioxidants are considered secondary antioxidants, are primarily used as peroxide decomposers and are generally not used alone, but are instead used in combination with other antioxidants.
- Other available antioxidants are CyanoxTM LTDP, a thioether antioxidant, available from Cytec Industries in Stamford, Conn., EthanoxTM 330, a hindered phenolic antioxidant, available from Albemarle in Baton Rouge, La.
- Many other antioxidants are available for use by themselves, or in combination with other antioxidants. These compounds are added to the hot melts in small amounts, up to about 2% by weight in the hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive, and have no effect on the physical properties of the adhesive.
- Fillers come in the form of particulate matter, fibers and powders, or may be any material that does not interfere with the other components in the adhesive. Some examples include calcium carbonate, ceramics, glass, silica, quartz, mica, treated clay, titanium dioxide, boron nitrides, graphite, carbon black, metals, barium, sulfate, talc and mixtures thereof. Such additives are known to one of skill in the art.
- the resultant pellets are soft, non-blocking, substantially free from surface tack and exhibit an elastic rebound.
- This last characteristic can be measured by the elastic or storage modulus, G'. The higher the modulus, the more likely that the material will return to its original shape.
- G' the elastic or storage modulus
- the pellets formed resemble gels. They possess some elastic rebound, but tend to retain the same physical property over a wide-temperature range, or over a long period of time. These pellets are desirable for making articles such as Santa Claus' bellies.
- the pellets formed have high elastic modulus and tend to return to their original shape faster. They are more suited for producing articles such as drum pads.
- Compatible polymers or copolymers discussed above can also be added to modify the properties of the pellets. These are generally of low molecular weight, and pellets made with an amount of the high molecular weight triblock copolymer tend to have more rebound than those made with the same amount of a blend of this copolymer and the low molecular weight compatible polymer or copolymer. These compatible polymers or copolymers are thus added for customizing the final applications or uses.
- composition suitable for such processes comprises:
- a tacky hot melt composition comprising:
- the pelletizing aid substantially surrounds the tacky composition such that the molded articles are soft, non-blocking and substantially without surface tack.
- other polymers such as diblock or other triblocks can be added.
- the tacky hot melt composition comprises from about 97 to about 99.9 percent by weight of the article, more preferably from about 99 to about 99.9 percent by weight.
- Any molded articles produced therefrom also retain the substantially tack-free surface and rebound properties.
- Such articles can include drum pads useful as acoustical pads for vibration damping, disc players, ear phones, percussion surfaces on electronic drum kits and so on; soles shoes insoles, in-line skate soles and so on; pads for use in athletic gear such as mouth pads, protective guards, encapsulants for other solid protective pads and so on; bicycle seats, gloves, bicycle shorts and so on; medical equipment such as pads for wheel chairs, donut-shaped pads for seats and so on; furniture pads such as mattress pads, chair pads and so on; special effects articles such as body parts, Santa Claus' bellies, and other that are useful in movies.
- the pelletizing aid used herein blooms to the surface during the molding process, such that it substantially completely surrounds the tacky composition below and produces articles substantially free of surface tack when cooled. This is surprising because the amount of pelletizing aid used in the formulation is small, and according to prior art teachings, should not substantially interfere with the properties of the bulk composition, nor should it change the surface properties.
- the present invention further discloses a method for making such pellets for all the formulations of the invention.
- the manufacturing process can vary slightly for each product depending on the plasticizer loading.
- the current process requires multiple passes through a co-rotating twin screw extruder with the product being pelletized at the end of each pass, and then refed into the extruder for the further addition of plasticizer.
- the compositions with 90 percent plasticizer or more need three passes, while lower plasticizer loadings may require only two. It is important to note that the materials are pelletized with the pelletizing aid after both passes.
- the concentration of the pelletizing aid in the water can range from about 0.1 percent to about 3 percent by weight, preferably about 0.1 to about 1 percent by weight based on anticipated production rate for each pass.
- a specific preferred manufacturing process comprises:
- the pelletizing aid is present in the cooling medium. It can also be added to the hot melt composition prior to blending or during the pelletizing steps by cofeeding a solution of pelletizing aid with the hot melt composition.
- stabilizers or antioxidants can also be added to the compositions in small amounts and have no effect on the other physical properties of the compositions.
- Other compounds that could be added that also do not effect physical properties are pigments for color, fluorescing agents, and any compounds that mask odor. Additives such as these are known to one of skill in the art.
- melt viscosities of the hot melt adhesives were determined on a Brookfield Thermosel Viscosmeter Model DV-II+. using either a number 21 or 27 spindle.
- the specific gravity was determined using test method ASTM D792 with isopropyl alcohol as the liquid.
- the Mettler softening points are determined using test method ASTM D3461.
- compositions are provided for illustrative purposes only.
- Examples 1 and 2 illustrate the invention using only a high molecular weight block substantially linear A-B-A block copolymer.
- Examples 3 and 4 illustrate the use of a blend of a high molecular weight block copolymer and another block copolymer. These examples illustrate compositions that are useful for molded articles. The dynamic temperature steps are especially illustrative of this. See exhibit no. 1.
- Examples 5 and 6 illustrate compositions which may be used as hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives.
- Comparative example A is an example of a composition where G' falls outside the parameters specified for a hot melt pressure sensitive composition. From Table 4 it can be seen that it is necessary to raise the temperature to nearly 100° C. for G' to fall within the pressure sensitive range.
